UNSPSC 85502401: Insertion of intraluminal device into left subclavian artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to insertion of intraluminal device into left subclavian artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 03H44DZ

UNSPSC 85502401, Insertion of intraluminal device into left subclavian artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach, is a Commodity code that shows a significant mismatch between its nominal scope—a specific interventional cardiology procedure—and recent state and local procurement activity. The code is being applied to solicitations for occupational medical surveillance, disability medical evaluations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical carve-out programs, health professional staffing, and youth detention medical services. None of these activities involve intraluminal device insertion or vascular intervention. The recent opportunities indicate that state and local buyers are using this code to tag general healthcare services procurement, including medical examinations, benefit administration, and clinical staffing, rather than the specific surgical procedure the code nominally describes.

Recent activity spans multiple states and issuing bodies: the Washington State Department of Transportation solicited occupational medical surveillance services (RFP 20260825, due October 9, 2026) across 14 Washington locations; the City of Phoenix Retirement Office sought independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations (RFP 26001, due October 16, 2026); the City of Long Beach requested proposals for a surgical benefit carve-out program (RFP HR26753, due October 7, 2026); Collier County sought pharmacy benefit management services (RFP 25-8414); the County of Santa Clara Health System established a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing (RFSQ HHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026); and Harris County Juvenile Probation Department issued an RFI for specialty and emergency medical services (RFI 071626BNM, due September 25, 2026). The code shows no coherent recent activity aligned with its stated definition and appears to be misapplied across healthcare administration and occupational health domains rather than reflecting actual procurement of the intraluminal device procedure itself.
